This witty little garbage can speaks volumes. Sukwon Park and Sungwoo Park’s Armstrong Bin was named after the world-changing first step onto the moon made by Neil Armstrong in the late 60s.
The Armstrong Bin is all about stomping down garbage to improve our planet. You simply open the lid, throw out the trash and then step on the footprint, which causes the accordion-like shell of the bin to squish down to the ground and reduce the size of the garbage.
I have absolutely no problem stomping my way to a better future!
